Description
Xavier Tilliette's The Eucharist in Modern Philosophy is a comprehensive exploration of how various philosophers and thinkers have grappled with the concept of the Eucharist. From Descartes to Marion, Tilliette examines the diverse ways in which modern philosophy has engaged with Christology, revealing a rich and complex tradition. Tilliette's work spans centuries and thinkers, including de Chardin, Simone Weil, and Paul Claudel, as well as philosophers like Leibniz and Blondel. He shows how each of these individuals contributed to the ongoing conversation about the Eucharist, highlighting both the aporias and failures that have driven this inquiry forward. This book provides a unique insight into the intellectual history of the Eucharist in modern philosophy, demonstrating its enduring relevance and importance in contemporary thought.
